resize2fs
by Ed Morrison 30 Aug '11

30 Aug '11

Hi All: I am trying to resize a centos (5.2) VM drive. I use VMware and I have increased the size of the drive by 40G. I am running resize2fs on /dev/sdb1 (which is my root partition) but when I do I get this error: [root@centos ~]# resize2fs /dev/sdb1 120G resize2fs 1.39 (29-May-2006) The containing partition (or device) is only 19970795 (4k) blocks. You requested a new size of 31457280 blocks. How can I change the block size? I have also tried to use gparted live cd but it will not allow me to increase the size even though it sees 40g of unused space. I can only create a new partition. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Ed

Installing 6.0 via USB
by Kenneth Porter 30 Aug '11

30 Aug '11

I'm using LiveUSB-Creator to create a bootable USB drive from CentOS-6.0-i386-netinstall.iso, and it gives me an error at startup: vesamenu.c32: Not a COM32R image I can hit tab and select "linux" and then it loads vmlinux and the initrd, says "Ready", and then just hangs. I'm not sure what's supposed to happen next. "vesa" and "rescue" do the same thing. The error message above apparently is caused by the syslinux in the ISO not matching the one that LiveUSB-Creator installs to boot from: <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=662557> The system has 512 MB of memory. Is that enough to boot the installer?

Postfix not set top start after upgrade
by Micha Silver 30 Aug '11

30 Aug '11

I noticed that after the lastest yum update on CentOS 5.6 we get Postfix 2.3.3, but the status of the postfix service (chkconfig --list postfix) changes to off. So after a reboot, it doesn't start automatically. I don't recall this ever happening before. Is this by design? A packaging error? Thanks, Micha

CentOS 6 IPv6: neighbor and restart network
by Helmut Drodofsky 30 Aug '11

30 Aug '11

Hallo, for using the ipv6 neighbor functions, I have to execute commands like ip -6 neigh add proxy 2001::211:d8ff:fe97:3273 dev eth0 to publish the ip of computers in the subnet. To execute them on reboot, I have included these commands in /etc/rc.d/rc.local Also after each restart of the network, I have to execute these commands too. So: how can I always execute /etc/rc.d/rc.local after service network restart My idea: Is it possible to rename /etc/network to /etc/network_original and to create a new shell script /etc/network to execute both? Other/better advice? Thank you for help in advance. Helmut

Re: [CentOS] (c 5.6) Running 2 versions of Apache ?

If they are looking for Micro$loth specific pages, I redirect them to Micro$loth's Web site. I figure if they want Micro$loth stuff, may as well send them to the source. :-)

mail.centos.org : packets to strange ports
by Always Learning 30 Aug '11

30 Aug '11

Reading a daily Logwatch report I noticed mail.centos.org sending packets to my outgoing mail server. The packets were blocked by IPtables. >From 72.26.200.202 - 18 packets To xx.xx.xx.xx - 18 packets Service: 33120 (tcp/33120) - 2 packets Service: 33906 (tcp/33906) - 4 packets Service: 39856 (tcp/39856) - 2 packets Service: 42049 (tcp/42049) - 2 packets Service: 54517 (tcp/54517) - 2 packets Service: 54792 (tcp/54792) - 4 packets Service: 58445 (tcp/58445) - 2 packets I thought all outgoing mail dialogue was conducted on port 25. Incoming mail from Centos is usually received by a different server. Thanks, Paul. -- With best regards, Paul. England, EU.
